Ch Toomai of Montfleuri
and Ch Toy Boy
of Toytown,
who were both 13 inch Miniatures. Wychwood Gatesgarth Monarch was whelped
October 5, 1953. He was very handsome and was an exaggeration of Poodle
quality. He was a good black with long, lean head, small eye, low-set
ears, well developed body, good tailset and extreme angulation. He
consistently produced under 11 inches even when bred to full size
miniatures.

Monarch sired a total of 8 champions. His black son,
Eng. Ch. Tophill Toyboy
was whelped January 1, 1957, the same year the British Kennel Club
recognized the Toy Poodle as a separate variety. Toyboy exerted a strong
influence on the Toy in England and abroad, including the American kennels
of Clarion, Charade, and Foxmore.
